General Motors has won eight Vincentric 2014 Best Fleet Value in America awards for the second consecutive year. The winners include Buick Encore, Buick Enclave, Buick LaCrosse, Buick Verano, Chevrolet Spark EV, Chevrolet Express 3500, GMC Sierra 2500 HD Work Truck, and the GMC Sierra 3500 HD Work Truck.
“GM’s award winning vehicles cover a wide variety of segments including passenger cars, vans, crossovers, and trucks,” Davis Wurster, president of Vincentric. “This is a testament to the company’s ability to meet the varying needs of a widely segmented fleet industry.”
In its ninth anniversary, the Vincentric Awards are used by fleet operators to understand vehicle lifestyle costs, a key part of the purchase part. The Spark EV also represents Vincentric’s first electric vehicle award. Separately, the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado was named to have the lowest cost of ownership in America.

The only Chevrolet car is the Spark EV? What happened to the Impala and the Malibu, which I have seen in many car rentals? BTW, the Spark EV is the LOWEST COST TO OWN of any American vehicle. I have the Owner Manual (it is available online as a PDF, too), and its maintenance is checking tire pressures and fluid levels, replacing wiper blades and passenger cabin air filter. That is it!! No oil, no gas, no plugs, no hot coolant, no other filters, and low brake wear. It is as simple as a toy car, just charge it and go. The biggest wear item will be the tires!
What American vehicle cost less to own? Not the Silverado!
